Data View Menu

The Data View menu contains items you can use to modify the appearance of the Data View tab, create snapshots of signals displayed on the Data View tab, or export values of signals on the Data View tab to Microsoft Excel.

Note  The Data View menu appears only when the active tab is the Data View tab.

This menu contains the following items:

• Add Display adds a display to the active Data View tab.
• Rename displays a dialog box you can use to rename the active Data View tab.
• New Data View creates a new Data View tab.
• Remove Data View removes the active Data View tab. This option is enabled only when the project includes more than one Data View tab.
• Signals contains the following option:
  • Create Snapshots creates snapshots of all the signals displayed on the active Data View tab.
• Export To contains the following option:
  • Microsoft Excel exports the values of every data point in every signal displayed on the active Data View tab to a Microsoft Excel book file. If the Data View tab includes multiple signals, each signal appears on a separate worksheet in the book file.

Note  LabVIEW SignalExpress does not save Microsoft Excel files to which you export signals. You must manually save the exported file in Microsoft Excel.
